According to MARCA and verified BY transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports Real Madrid star Vinicius JR is under FIFA investigation for allegations relating to a breach of rules regarding club ownership.
The Brazilian forward, who will soon put pen to paper on a lucrative new contract at Los Blancos, is accused of ownership of multiple football clubs breaching FIFA’s regulations on conflict of interest. A conviction against Vinicius Jr. could lead to a suspension from all football activities of up to two years.
The news could have major NCAA implications for the 23-year-old, considering his growing stature at Real Madrid and his status on Brazil’s national team. A potential ban would undermine any momentum at a stage widely seen as the prime of his career.
Vinicius Jr has not publicly responded to the claims despite the increasing scrutiny surrounding the footballer. Close sources of the player alike have indicated that he intends to remain concentrated and help Real Madrid finish the season in a positive way.
The investigation comes at a pivotal moment for the winger, and any disciplinary action could have a heavy impact on both his professional career and commercial prospects should the accusations be proved.
